Official SGT ADD thread

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Did anyone notice that the star tau Bootis flipped its magnetic field from north to south.

I drove back and shipped all of DW's mothers stuff, and then drove back a mini-van full of "breakables" and other items that would not have done well in shipping!

On the trip, we have several books that document the "roadside attrction" sites, and talked about doing that going to, and coming from WDW! At the very least, we figure a week to get there, at LEAST a week at WDW, and a week back!
Reminds me of that old 3 stooges bit: When did you first notice you had a weak back? Oh, about a week back!

Seriously though, it sounds like fun. But I've heard I40 through TX and OK are kinda boring.

I did drive in MANY years ago. I was going to Georgia for about four months of training, and I wanted to have a vehicle while I was there. You are right, that stretch seems to go on and on and on and on and.....arrrrhhhhh!!!

I saw a couple pins last night that were Dory and Marlin, and Nemo and a couple of his school friends- a blue fish and the pink octopus girl... And they got traded away from the lanyard I was wearing while I was greeting at Plaza Inn Before They Had a Chance to Cool Down from my hands- Heehee!

Chocolates! Where????????? I WANT SOME! Maybe some chocolate covered cherries would work... This cold I have is driving me bonkers. Just caught it a couple days ago- and yesterday was soup day. First I had wonton soup and dinner was chunky chicken soup, followed by 2 pain killers and 2 night time medications that made me sleepy.
